Topic: Aaaannnd....ITS OVER (Read 2703 times)
same here. 25+ confirmations, no coins....
over 40 confirms...no coins. GOX'd like a pro.
And WHY do i use them STILL. Cause i gots loot there and i'm verified fools. Gots to get that loot out, and i'm not going to buy high and wd it. i'm going sell coins if it goes up, buy em if/when it comes down. Then WD coin.
You see i had it all planned out, just like when i sold those pumpkin futures at a 52 week high towards the end of october. Thought this would be like a repeat, build my coin balance w/some smart trading, then w/d them in minutes to my client. You know how any reputable reliable exchange would work.
But what do you do when you can't get your fiat out of gox, and you can't get your coins in either?
Suck it up, smile and enjoy the Goxing, thats what i'm doing!

Why is anyone still even trying to trade there, just move to one of the other 8 big ones.
Because most of them are currently down, running far behind, are showing prices way out of sync with other exchanges, or have a huge spread that blocks trading. btce and bitstamp look usable, but Bitstamp is at $70, Btce is at $80, and Mt. Gox is at $90. If you could get funds in and out of exchanges rapidly, you could make money on arbitrage. http://bitcoincharts.com/markets/currency/USD.html
and up again. 10s lag.... the story continues....
To be fair... Show of hands, how many of you here were looking at $260 prices, and wishing you could buy cheaper coins? 
I managed to get a few more people into Bitcoin. Now that the price is lower it makes adoption a little more palatable.
Consulting can be difficult but one on one training is the best for adoption. I find it works best when I work with people directly on this topic.
Everyone pull your money out and send it to either

You can add Cavirtex.com to that list. These guys AKA Jacob works hard and long, his fees are wild, I think I started at like 3 or 3.5%. I've traded over 1100 BTC on there in the last 2 months so I am now on the 1.5% tear about to drop to 1%.
Anyways, if you dont mind paying the fees its a real good option.
Once you break that 2500 BTC 120 day Volume your fees are good.
And they also had an IPO.

guilty!

I was perfectly happy with prices under 100. The run up from $40 to $250 never felt right to me.
You see, that I understand. Its people who are leaving their BTC on gox and trying to trade that has me wondering. I'm sure the other exchanges could split up all of the gox book and run just fine.
Problem is that 80% of all trading USD is still locked up in Gox, and it will be days until it gets into the other markets, so unless Gox resumes trading, we'll be having all of Gox's BTC chasing very little USD of its competitors.
So then maybe thats what we need, "days" of waiting for the USD to make it to other exchanges. I could wait days, even weeks or months with AML laws and what not, the main goal we need to reach is having at least 25% but i'd like to see 50% leave gox and go somewhere else. Its worth the time and headache the way I see it, but then again I dont trade on Gox.

Well that was an exciting 87 minutes of uptime.
Not for me...no crediting of my btc deposit after 20 confirms.... Orders to buy at open locked up, didn't execute couldn't adjust.
I wasn't credited for my BTC deposit either....THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE, I AM NEVER USING THEM AGAIN
Did they try turning it off and on again?
For me, personally, it's because all my USD is still tied up in there. Not as easy to move that elsewhere as BTC is

Whats fucked is that if the majority continue to use gox then this problem will will continue until we see a 10$BTC. We need the other players in this feild to come here and "pitch" us so "we" dont forget that theres others out here that can do the same as gox, better then gox and if they changed their prices they could be cheaper then gox.
P.s. I only trade on BTCE and Cavirtex ATM
It is absolutely mind boggling to me that they have been taking 1.2% of the market price of every trade (maybe a bit less for the higher volume movers) for the entire run up and then deliver such a shoddy service. I'm sure they have made a substantial amount of money during the rise. Then as penance they insult us with 2 days of free trading.
EDIT: They irony is that free trades will result in higher volume. This is supposedly what crashed them in the first place...

I am a big fan of Einstein's definition of insanity. You can see it at work here.
I tried to cash in on the opening sell off and fall. I put my order in early but when it was finally processed my coins were all sold for $77 then the price jumped up to $120. 
What happened to the $20 bitcoins everyone was promising??
